Juan Williams Plays Race Card: Old White People Voted For Prop C (Video)
Posted by Jim Hoft on Monday, August 9, 2010, 8:49 AM
Of course, this surprises no one…
Juan Williams attacks those 71% of Missouri voters who supported Prop C.
“You get 70% inside of an echo chamber of older, white people not in St. Louis or Kansas City that say we don’t like a requirement that everybody has to have health care.”
You’ve just gotta love how the left attacks seniors and whitey without batting an eye… But, that’s not racist.
FYI- Only 13% of Missouri citizens are over 65 years old.

Juan Wacist Williams should not be dissing old white folks.
Chisum commented:
“Old white people”, huh.
Why does this man still have a job?
Those old white people worked their whole lives to help build this country. And now they have no say? Their efforts don’t count?
Racism, straight up!
Palinfan commented:
Want to know how to stop this Liberal ‘racist everone’ crap?
Every time you see an article with a Liberal name in it, doesn’t matter what it’s about or who it is, put this in the comments:
(Insert Liberal Name Here) is a racist, bigoted, homophobic, anti -Semite who just doesn’t want women to have freedom to use their bodies the way they want.
eaglewingz08 commented:
Isn’t it funny how the people who complain most
about ‘racial profiling’ are the first to engage in it.
It’s also amazing that 700,000 old white people voted in Missouri. If true, the dems will be facing an elderly white tsunami this November. I’m also surprised that Juan didn’t call these 700,000 ‘old folks’, ‘angry white men’ as do his liberal cohorts.

I think it was an indirect slam to Liz about her Dad.After all, exactly how old is Juan Willams?
eaglewingz08 commented:
BTW more than 28 percent of Missourians voted for Obama, what happened to those old white folks in that election?
bobdog commented:
Williams would angrily defend Adolf Hitler if he thought they were Democrats.
The only difference between him and Allen Combes is that Williams doesn’t leave quite as much slime on his chair when he leaves.
BuddyG commented:
Old white people as opposed to typical old white people ?
gus commented:
What is so hard to understand about NO.
Furthermore, I believe WASHINGTON D.C. is an echo chamber, not Missouri.
down with dems commented:
Juan Williams is a disgRACE. Takes a racist to know a racist, Juan.
Of course there were more white votes for PropC, because there are more white people. That’s why blacks and hispanics are called minorities.
The most racist thing in this country is Obama’s approval rating among blacks, which is virtually unanimous in support. No white presidential candidate or white president has ever had ~98% of the white vote or ~98% approval among whites.
RACISTS
bill-tb commented:
My guess would be old white people are the only ones left with a real education, and not a liberal propaganda one. And what is wrong with listening to the elders? Wasn’t that where the truth is kept, within the older population.
Is that why the Obama regime’s Eugenics is all about kill the old?
Noah commented:
I’m not old, but white and I voted for prop C.. So
Jaun I hope you get booted off Fox news and have to go cover stories your more suited for.. like run away garbage trucks..
Peter L commented:
I am 53. I live in Missouri. I am a Caucasian of 100% Puerto Rican descent. I voted for Prop C. I guess I am an “old white” person, even though I am younger than Juan Williams. ¡Vivan los viejos! (Long live the old folks!)
Khan Krum commented:
Chisum writes: “Those old white people worked their whole lives to help build this country. And now they have no say? Their efforts don’t count?”
That’s the reason the Cultural Marxists want to attack and annihilate them — they see them as the cause of all things wrong with the world. This is no accident but the goal of identity politics.
We need to expose and stop these Cultural Marxists before our whole nation (which you rightly argue THOSE OLD WHITE PEOPLE built) goes down the tube and the light of the West if extinguished.
Remember how Juan wept with joy when he saw the elevation of his Obamessiah? This guy is such a feckin’ joke.
KR commented:
Juan has to think that Americans a rather slow to not immediately pick up on 70+% can’t all be the elderly.
Seems it is too painful to Juan to accept the idea/fact that even some minorities/dems. voted for Prop C.
averagemelon commented:
Remember when our elected officials REPRESENTED the American people? They wrote bills and passed laws with the backing of the American people? Remember when VOTING had a definitive outcome because it was the voice of the people? It never needed a court to decide if it was the democratic way to determine how this nation decided to govern itself.
Now, according to Juan, he looked over all the cast ballots and has decided that only old white people voted. He has asserted that no youths, blacks, Asians, Hispanics, or any other ethnicity voted. How in the hell did he determine this? This is so ridiculous on its face, it’s embarassing. THE PEOPLE OF MISSOURI DO NOT WANT OBAMACARE, JUAN. I really don’t see any more clear way of telling him this.
DINORight commented:
I hate to state the obvious, but – here is yet another example of the double standard: change the statement to “old black people” and the person would be off the air. Period. Unless, of course, the person was black him/herself. Then it would just be “I apologize if I offended anyone” blah, blah, blah – the usual non-apology.
He should be gone. Period. But he won’t be asked to even apologize, because even though he is making a blatant racist and ageist statement, he will get a pass. Unlike Liz Cheney, had she said the exact same words.
Even if everyone wrote in about how “offended” they are/were, there would be no action.
Now, about the comment Juan made: how does he know who voted by demographic? (Of course he doesn’t, but just consider the possibility that he does.) Is this now something that is tracked in elections? I thought that elections in the US are anonymous (name, age, race, gender, etc.) in our country. Is that still true? If so, how do these politicos track the “woman’s vote,” the “black vote,” the “old vote” etc.? Do they take the logs of who voted and use their race and demographic data to analyze? I know many statistics are based on exit polls; however, these numbers are often reported without knowing how they are derived.
Maybe that is a new issue to raise regarding elections. If the demographic divisions cannot be tracked, it would help minimize this type of identity politics.
I know, I know. Fat chance of getting that to happen. But this breaking down of the vote fuels the identity politics that the Democrats and liberal left have used – and mastered – via ACORN, SEIU, etc. If it were stopped, maybe WE THE PEOPLE would be considered, not our demographic breakdown.
Just thinking………
IL Patriot commented:
Imagine, if you will, Liz Cheyny (or any other white commentator) stipulating that old black people voted for “fill in the blank”. You’d never see that person on TV again. Yet, Juan gets away with it time and time again. Juan Williams and Dr. Marc Lamont Hill are out and out racists and their continued appearances on any national news and commentary show is disturbing. Call Roger Ailes, hello??????
Bill Fabrizio commented:
The Missouri demographics showed that Proposition C passed in all counties. In the two major cities with significant minority populations, St. Louis and Kansas City, over 40% also voted for it. So Juan can spin anyway he wants but even in the black strongholds the vote was bad news for Obama!
Chisum commented:
“FYI- Only 13% of Missouri citizens are over 65 years old.”
====================
So, Juan Williams is not only a racist, he’s also a moron!
He’s a walking, talking example of the “Peter Principle”.
zmdavid commented:
“You get 70% inside of an echo chamber of older, white people not in St. Louis or Kansas City that say we don’t like a requirement that everybody has to have health care.”
Health care and health insurance are not the same thing, Juan. Equating them is a deliberate disinformation tactic.

theBuckWheat commented:
Race? Since when should sound economics be in any way shape or form about race? This is nothing less than liberal chaos at work before our very eyes. It makes as much sense as suggesting that airplane design or the design of a television could be racially motivated.
When Nobel prize winning poet Tony Morrrison can call Bill Clinton black, then what is “black”? When the NAACP calls a black conservative, “not black enough”, and “not a brother” then what is “black”? When Time magazine’s Jack White calls Supreme Court Justice Thomas, “the scariest of all the hobgoblins”, saying “Washington seems to be filled with white men who make black people uneasy”, than what is “black”? And when Obama, a man whose mother is Caucasian, can tell us in a widely read autobiography that in his youth he struggled with his racial identity before *deciding* to be black, what is “black”?
“Black” in all these contexts, as well as Juan Williams’s complaint about the extraordinarily lopsided expression of Missouri voter sentiment, is clearly not about “race”. It is about ideology, a clearly socialist ideology.
And so as these expressions of “black” pile up in the mind of the public, more and more will wake up to this truth: socialists will pull any heart string and descend to any dirty trick to advance their agenda. If we think they have reached bottom with Juan William’s complaint, you haven’t seen anything yet. And that is exactly why these people must be disempowered, defunded and shown to be the frauds they are.
November or Never!
IOpian commented:
The liberal mind is incapable of perceiving the world as it is but rather forms a perception of the world as the narrative says it ought to be.
Robert commented:
I notice he made that condescending remark to Chris Wallace, “I hate to inform you, but…” as if he (Williams) was the know-it-all.
That was also an ad-hominem slur used to try to evade the fact that he had been corrected by the “white man”, something he is entitled to NOT have happen to him.
The whole premise and presentation was decidedly not intellectual nor factual , but instead childish and immature.

Yes, Juan I remember your tears when you wre at the inauguration coverage .That was real fair coverage, man.

Formerly known as Skeptic commented:
Only an idiot or a party flack (but I repeat myself) could make make the statement that 70% exist in an “echo chamber.” Not to mention that 70% is the total for the state. If I recall from the interactive map, there were counties that went YES at up to 89%. That’s some echo chamber!

StrngernFiction commented:
And if someone dared mock Williams for his ridiculous commentary, though this is the most intelligent reaction one can register to the gibberish that he spouts on a regular basis, they would be the ones shown the door. Because that is how the game is played.
So Fox won’t even slap this fools wrist, and the assault by the MSM (including Fox) on fairness, logic, and common sense continues. But I guess Fox deserves accolades, because despite the presence of complete clowns like Williams, Powers, Beckel, Rivera, Smith…., they are not nearly as bad as the other guys.
theBuckWheat commented:

I think that Fox does a public service by allowing progressives to express themselves in a context where we can see with crystal clarity what chaos their thinking really represents.
Brooklyn commented:
Juan Williams jumped the shark long ago, but this weekend was even more ugly than usual. Of course he had the vapid Partisan named Jennifer Loven to back up the Democratic Party’s nonsense.
The old, tired, dishonest Democratic Partisan talking points goes like this…
1. Tax the Rich (which means everyone).
2. Tax Everything (which means everything).
3. Call the opposition racist, fascist, etc.
4. Tax some more…
5. Vilify, demean, divide, etc.
6. Use taxpayer money, public service, government, to finance their own political advancement and personal greed.
7. Raise taxation yet again.
Akatsukami commented:
So Missouri is only 30% young people of color, eh, Juan? Guess it won’t be voting to re-elect Barry Dunham in 2012, then.
IL Patriot commented:
Ginger: Thanks. I sent a message to Chris and Bret. They need to hear from us. This type of divisiveness should not stand.
New Mexico commented:
You guys should lighten up on Juan Williams. He is one of the few liberal blacks on television who will criticize the black establishment when it is wrong. He obviously was wrong in this analysis, but he is no racist, and is usually very reasonable, even if he is a liberal and in my opinion is wrong because of the liberal positions he takes. I am very glad Fox has him on, because I don’t think he takes knee-jerk liberal or “black” positions on the issues, when almost all the liberals or blacks you see on television do. He might be wrong, but we need to hear the best the other side has to offer, and I think he does a pretty good job of that.
Jeffersonian commented:
Williams is full of baloney, but let’s assume that he’s right for a second and everyone who voted for Prop C is an old ofay. So what?

Sooooooo what difference does it make if Old, middle age and young but over 18 voted for prop C that means no matter what the color was, We in Missouri do not want obamacare.. Do votes only count now if a majority of Minority’s vote for or against ? Thats what Jaun was saying right?

“You get 70% inside of an echo chamber of older, white people not in St. Louis or Kansas City that say we don’t like a requirement that everybody has to have health care.”
Health care and health insurance are not the same thing, Juan. Equating them is a deliberate disinformation tactic.
=========
You’re right on the money — health INSURANCE is not the same as health CARE.
That’s exactly what PropC was about. Asserting your right to acquire the good/service known as health CARE via any means you so choose — by paying for health INSURANCE which would then cover any of your health CARE that may arise, or by NOT paying for health INSURANCE and instead paying in cash out of your pocket to cover your health CARE expenses for those occasions when you are sick.
Health INSURANCE is what you buy in case you might get sick, and it pays for the health CARE you receive at a doctor/hospital. They’re not equivalent, but the Democrats use them interchangably to blur them.
The Dems will demonize you for opposing health CARE, when you’re opposing a health INSURANCE mandate.
If you’re uninsured, you can still pay cash at the doctor/hospital to receive health CARE — except Obamacare takes that CHOICE away from you. Don’t be fooled by Democrat messaging, America.
Buffalobob commented:
Juan is tolerable most of the time, you must remember he does work for NPR. What surprises me is that just a few weeks ago he was told to go sit on the porch by black activists Warren Ballantine. That is a pejorative term used by blacks to describe blacks that they considered to be house Negroes. I am beginning to see that there is more hate and discrimination coming from the black community at all social levels.
StrngernFiction commented:

—————————————————
Fox does a service by reporting on news that the MSM won’t. Showing respect to utter buffoons like Beckel, Williams, and Powers by legitimizing their absolutely inane viewpoints, when they deserve to be laughed off the set does not help us IMHO. I will agree that the Kelly vs. Powers encounter was some of the best tv I’ve seen and was quite beneficial as the ‘rat was put on the defensive and dropped the mask, but rarely is a leftist treated in this fitting fashion.

Oean Kayaker commented:
Juan Williams has insulted a group to which I belong, and I resent it. I’m sure the older black Americans who made up a part of that 71% would also resent his ridiculous statement.
down with dems commented:
and PS: the only reason the Dems want to mandate you buy health INSURANCE is because they want all you healthy people in the pool, because you will PAY MORE for health INSURANCE than you will USE in health CARE. Thus, you’re losing money, paying an inflated price for the health CARE you receive, in order to finance the health CARE of others. If you just paid for the health CARE you used, you’d pay less–but that option is taken away from you by Obamacare.
Not only does Obamacare force certain people to buy something they don’t want (health INSURANCE), it also forces them to pay MORE for what they will ultimately get (health CARE).
Can you say “redistribution of wealth”???
Why don’t all the Democrats voluntarily pay more for their health care and health insurance, in order to finance the health care of others? Make it an opt-in kind of thing. If paying for others is such a great thing and good people would be all for it, then let them show how “good” they are by volunteering to pay more for the same thing instead of being forced to do so.
Won’t happen… it’s do as I say, not as I do for the Dems. Remember Hillary just the other day advocating Americans donate for flood relief in Pakistan — then she donated a whopping $10.
Lead by example and put your money where your mouths are, you self-righteous Democrats.
Iowa Jim commented:
It gets even better. Missouri has a population of six million (all numbers to the nearest ten-thousand). St. Louis proper (the city, not the MSA) has a population of 350,000. Kansas City (once again, the city, not the MSA0 has a population of 480,000. That leaves 5,170,000 people in Missouri who live in places other than Kansas City or St. Louis. That’s only 86.2% of the populace. Of course, the numbers could be different among those who voted, but they can’t be that much different.

New Mexico…I used to think Juan “might” be getting a glimmer of insight but unfortunately IMHO his pigment goes deeper than his skin, actually into his brainstem and optic chiasm..in short he “sees” everything through his pigment soaked “perspective”, very sad in his case..I think the prognosis politically is terminal..As to “Dr.” Mark Lamont Williams (head of African-American ethnic studies at Columbia U, well, can anyone, anywhere show me “Africa-America” on a map, anyone…this “Dr” has the same melanin soaked perspective as Juan and YES I wish Fox would stop giving them so called credence…Fox, please look and find the 2% of blacks who don’t support O and interview them as they’re insightful, thoughful Americans whose pigment stops at the skin level and whose perspective could very well be refreshing, novel and open-minded (not glued together by pigment)
sherlock commented:
No, Juan, it was 70% of ALL the people that voted in the ENTIRE state, not just old people, not just white people, and not “OUTSIDE” of anywhere.
Williams basically told a provable lie right there, and he should have been called on it. What he wanted to say (without saying it) is that the votes of elderly whites should not count as much as the votes of those he identifies with. I almost said “those he disagrees with”, but he referenced a specific demographic, didn’t he!
I’ll bet Juan knows the name for those who make such statements and hold those kind of predudices. Looks like we found one on Fox, just like the leftists like to claim!!
dallasdan commented:
Juan is one of several token liberals on Fox. He also doubles as a human cartoon character.
donh commented:
Yes those mean selfish old people. 70 year average life expectancy just isn’t good enough for them. These greedy old people need to realize they have to die sooner for the greater good . There are a whole generation of young artists out there who deserve their fair share of access to healthcare subsidies paid at someone else’s expense.
Ginger commented:
Juan… Williams Is RACIST.
He over talks the others, he does not allow the others to have the same amount of time as he has. I have seen him get so angry that I could of swore I saw smoke coming out of his ears.

Strngrn Fiction, my wife would be very surprised to hear me referred to as a “squishy” conservative!! Williams has taken a lot of crap for even being on Fox, and even more crap for being critical of black culture and the black establishment, so I just think we should show him some respect and appreciation for not being in lock-step with his “group”, but being an independent thinker. If there were more like him (rather than the lock-step thinkers) we would be in better shape. I think we should remember that, rather than forget it.
By the way, he says that 70% of the voters are in an echo chamber of older, white people. I don’t think he meant that 70% of the voters are older, white people, just that they are in an echo chamber with older, white people. Now maybe this still sounds racist under today’s PC standards, but it could be that he just made a poor choice of words. I also think he was kidding with Wallace when he seemed to be condescending later in the piece.

PROMPT PAYMENT OF HEALTH INSURANCE CLAIMS…
House Bill 1498 requires the prompt payment of health insurance claims made by providers, as a response to the massive amount of unpaid claims Missouri hospitals reported in 2009. The “prompt pay” legislation will streamline the claims process and provide 45 processing days for claims to either be paid or denied. The bill will also implement a penalty of 1 percent of the total claim amount per day the claim remains unpaid past the 45-day window. In addition, the law will define a clean claim, which a provider must provide to an insurer for reimbursement, and remove the suspension provision currently in state statue that allows health insurers to delay payment by suspending a claim.

Carol commented:
1. to Juan Williams: Your disdain for one-person/one-vote democracy is a stunner.
2. On the new habit of calling out Whitey since Jan. 20, 2009, just to review: White People were the first to have a king that said even He was not above the Law. That tradition of Law has been a great gift to all races, transformational in the hands of Hindus like Gandhi and American-born Negroes like Martin Luther King. That tradition built this nation, and continues to mature in its inclusion for all people to thrive.
The latest melodramas coming out of the American-born Negro Leadership makes me realize they are sadly stuck. It is White People who have actually absorbed the lesson and ideal of “an oasis of freedom and justice” from MLK. We prove it over and over again, with our votes and our Champions (God played by Morgan Freeman, our model President David Palmer played by Dennis Haysbert — who we wanted, too bad we elected his character’s weenie brother Wayne).
I pray Blacks will step away from the grievance-groveling and realize they have won, even as WE HAVE ALL WON. We are blessed together. All colors have shown courage and helped made this wealthy, worthy Contract called the US. Now let’s roll up our sleeves and build an American Century.
3. R-E-S-P-E-C-T: I will respectfully consider Old White People’s “echo-chamber” opinions on Everything, just as I respectfully consider Old Black People’s opinions on Everything, who the heck cares what color you are! Life in America is good. God Bless us all.
